“Earlier in Russia, women visited gambling casinos much less often than men. Now the situation is seriously changing. Girls come to the casino not only to play, but also to have a good time in a restaurant or watch a show on the casino stage. Some come in pairs, some with friends or girlfriends. Our goal is to create an atmosphere of joy, loyalty and openness for people who come to get positive emotions, communicate and relax.
We are interested in both couples and families, including those whose plans do not include play. We have enough events: shows, concerts, draws, restaurants with excellent service and excellent cuisine. The sooner the casino ceases to be a closed male elite club in the eyes of consumers, the better. - says the director of NJSC "Shambala" Maxim Smolentsev.

“The start turned out to be difficult, and a lot was done in the form of a feat. This applies both to the terms of launching the facility, and to the amount of work performed ”- comments the director of the NAO Shambala, Maxim Smolentsev. “We are very grateful to our guests. And in 2020, although it was for everyone from the category “you never dreamed of”, we are grateful too. We managed to open up and receive our first guests. I think life will get better in the near future, and people tend to forget all the bad things, but remember the bright and pleasant moments of life. There will be more and more such moments. It is necessary to make up for the life that has been postponed for the duration of the pandemic."
